Greetings lads. Today i will try my best to show you guys if someone is using cheat. or just good at game.
introduction
They are not cheaters always. Theres a chance they might be a good player. or lucky. dont forget that
Part 1: Understanding Cheats
- Aimbot: Automatically aligns the player’s aim to the enemy’s hitbox, usually the head.
- Behavior: Unrealistically fast adjustments to head level, even at odd angles.
- Example: Watch for players who snap their aim unnaturally between enemies, especially in tight situations.
- Triggerbot: Automatically fires when the crosshair hovers over an enemy.
- Behavior: Precise and instant shots, especially with sniper rifles like the AWP.
Author note: Aimbot is more easier to spot compering to triggerbot.
Allows players to see through walls and obstacles, revealing enemy positions.
- Behavior: Predicting enemy locations too accurately without information.
- Example: A player pre-firing at an enemy as they come around a corner, despite no sound cues or prior intel.
Author note: Wallhack. other name is ESP. fairly easy to spot. my tactic is hiding in somewhere unexpectable. and if the suspect. find me Shockingly fast. its either they have esp or good game sense and map knowledge
Displays all enemies on the radar, giving an unfair advantage in terms of positioning.
- Behavior: Players positioning perfectly to counter enemies or rotating too quickly after an enemy moves.
Author note: This is just like esp. However. Radar hack doesnt shows you through the walls etc. just makes you pop on minimap.
Automates perfect jumps to maintain or gain speed beyond what is humanly possible.
- Behavior: Flawless chaining of bunnyhops, maintaining speed over long distances.
- Example: Watch for players who consistently outmaneuver others by covering ground unnaturally fast.
Author note: This is important. Not all bunny hoppers are cheating nor using scripts. most of them are really good at it.
Makes the cheater’s character spin uncontrollably, making them extremely difficult to hit.
- Behavior: Continuous 360-degree spins, combined with auto-aim capabilities.
- Example: Obvious in-game and often a last-resort cheat for those who no longer care about being banned.
Author note: As i said. u can spot spinbots so easily.Their fav weapons are snipers mostly. deagle and revolver also.
Theese are the most used cheats. Plus. im not saying that every suspicious player is a cheater. there is a chance. that they might be a good player
Part 2: Detecting Cheaters
- A. Unnatural Reactions
Players reacting too quickly to unexpected situations, such as snapping to a target they couldn’t have seen or heard.
Example: A player suddenly turning and shooting through a smoke grenade with pinpoint accuracy. - B. Flawless Pre-Fires
Consistently pre-firing angles where enemies are located without intel.
Example: Pre-firing at a corner even when no teammate has called out enemy positions. - C. Overly Perfect Crosshair Placement Always keeping their crosshair at head level, even in unexpected situations.
Example: A player who rarely checks common spots but always aims where enemies actually are.
CS2 provides replay tools to review matches. Here’s how to analyze them effectively:
Enable X-Ray Mode: Helps you see what the cheater sees, including their crosshair and enemy positions.
Look for these patterns:
- Tracking Through Walls: Following enemies’ movements through solid structures.
- Instant Adjustments: Perfectly locking onto heads at varying ranges.
- Too Accurate Spray Control: Recoil patterns that are impossibly smooth.
The Overwatch program allows trusted players to review reported cases of cheating. When reviewing, pay close attention to:
- Unnatural Movement: Smooth or inhumanly fast transitions between targets.
- Impossible Reflexes: Headshots that occur faster than normal reaction times allow.
Work with your teammates to observe and report suspicious behavior. Ensure your reports are detailed to help Valve’s anti-cheat team investigate effectively.
A. Account Information
- Low Play Hours: Cheaters often use new accounts to avoid bans.
- Limited Game Library: Accounts created solely for cheating typically have very few games.
B. In-Game Statistics
- High K/D Ratio: Extremely high kill-to-death ratios in games with skilled opponents.
- Consistency in Hits: Unusual accuracy, particularly with rifles or sniper weapons.
BONUS: IS THERE A WAY TO NOT FACE WITH CHEATERS
FACEIT is a competitive gaming platform that offers matchmaking and tournaments for various games, most notably Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) and Counter-Strike 2 (CS2). It is widely used by players looking for a more competitive environment than traditional matchmaking systems, such as those provided by Valve. Here’s a breakdown of what FACEIT is:
FACEIT uses an advanced Elo rating system to match players of similar skill levels.
Players can climb ranks (Levels 1–10) by winning matches and improving their performance.
FACEIT has its own anti-cheat software, separate from Valve’s VAC, which is stricter and more effective in identifying cheaters.
FACEIT provides 128-tick servers (higher quality than the 64-tick servers used in default matchmaking), resulting in smoother gameplay.
Higher server quality and better matchmaking make it ideal for serious players.
FACEIT’s anti-cheat measures often make it a safer environment for competitive play.
Many pro players and aspiring professionals use FACEIT to hone their skills and get noticed in the community.
Tournaments, rankings, and rewards add an extra layer of engagement compared to traditional matchmaking.
Trust Factor in CS2 (and previously in CS:GO) is a system Valve uses to improve matchmaking quality by grouping players with similar trust levels. It aims to provide fairer matches and a better gaming experience by reducing encounters with cheaters or disruptive players.
Trust Factor is calculated based on various factors, including:
- Behavior: Reports of abusive chat, griefing, or toxic behavior lower your Trust Factor.
- Cheating Reports: Being reported for cheating negatively impacts Trust Factor.
- Game History: A clean, consistent history of playing matches improves Trust Factor.
Valve also considers data outside of CS2, such as:
- Steam Account Activity: Owning a mature account with a good reputation (e.g., no VAC bans) boosts Trust Factor.
- Other Games: Positive behavior in other Steam games can help.
- Cheat Detection: Accounts associated with cheating, either directly or via linked accounts, will see their Trust Factor drop significantly.
- Match Quality: Players with higher Trust Factor are more likely to be matched with others who avoid cheating and toxic behavior.
- Cheater Reduction: Low Trust Factor accounts are grouped together, isolating cheaters and disruptive players.
- Fairer Gameplay: High Trust Factor matches generally result in better teamwork and less trolling.
- Play Fair: Avoid using cheats or exploits.
- Be Positive: Avoid toxic behavior and maintain good communication with teammates.
- Build a Good Steam Profile:
Avoid VAC bans.
Maintain a good play history across multiple games. - Avoid Reports: Stay clean by not giving teammates a reason to report you.
- Consistent Playtime: Regularly play matches without abandoning or idling.
The end.
